breezEV EVC-L2-S48-18

breezEV EVC-L2-S48-18 is a Level 2 home EV charger from breezEV with up to 48 A (11.52 kW) output and a J1772 connector — 18 ft cable, non-networked operation.

Our take

Just 12 percent of the 91 certified 48 A chargers in this database skip networking, and this breezEV is one of them — no app in the loop, and a correspondingly clean 1.36 W idle draw that ranks in the best tenth of the class, about 12 kWh a year. Output is the full 11.5 kW on a 60 A circuit, roughly 41 miles of range per hour, though only 3 of our 29 tracked EVs can use that rate. The 18 ft cable sits in the bottom quarter of the cohort, so mount it close to where the charge port parks.
